Kyouiku vs Adult vs Sanmon Gossip
The latter SR albums. Which one is the best?

SG, followed closely by Adult.

Even if I couldn't listen to Dynamite Out recordings in a Kyouiku tracklist order, that album is still my first choice. It doesn't have any tracks I find myself wanting to skip. Kyouiku is also more original, considering that Ringo no Uta was the only remake on it, and none of the songs were very old.
In Sanmon Gossip, we got a version of Karisome Otome that we'd already heard 2.5 years ago, and a Phase 2-sounding version of Marunouchi Sadistic which should've been a B-Side, and a version of Yokyou which wasn't anywhere near as good as Ringo Expo. As far as closing tracks go, I love Tegami, but it can only trump whatever the end of Sanmon Gossip is - Tegami can't trump Yume no Ato.

All 3 of these albums are great, but for personal reasons/preferring "jazz" Ringo over "rock" Ringo, the latter 2 are my picks. Kyouiku is let down hardcore by Service and its production for me. Adult and SG are perfection for me, exactly what I want and not matched by anyone.

Adult! Kyouiku may have a bit more good songs but the production ruined them and I'm not really a big fan of SG apart from a few (great) songs. overall I think the Adult era with JCHI was the golden age of TJ

This is hard!
Kyouiku had probably the best songs but the worst production. Dynamite Out was the best, though. (Except for Crawl, that song is just awful) Adult had some excellent songs but some that weren't up to par. It had probably the best production, jazzy and powerful but not overstated. JCHI was decent. Sanmon Gossip had some great songs and some uneven tracks. Overall it feels mis-matched (too many styles of music that don't blend well). It's a bit overproduced. Its highs are really high, its lows are pretty decent. I'm going with Adult. If they could re-master Kyouiku to get ride of the wall of sound (and replace Crawl with something better), then it would be perfect. |

Kyouiku's production is awesome. I used to listen to lots of Misfits and GG Allin, so I like that kind of raw production.

This would actually be awesome.
I happen to fucking dig expo version of Marounichi Sadistic. Call Ghostbusters.
